I have the pair that made up the set. The receiver is cute, the
tranmitter is also cute, but not too useful given the crystal control
and the funky power supply situation and cords.  But if you want a nice
piece of gear to sit on the shelf, then get it if the price is not too
high.  I think that ER has had articles on the 109, but I can't remember
which issue.  Good luck.
        PS the rig works ok and the little key on the front panel is
a real trip.
